Many of the beach cafés along the Dutch coast are pulled down in October and rebuilt again on the same spot by their proprietors in early spring. It’s quite a tough job, often born of necessity: the risk of flooding in the winter is too great at some places on the beach. Another reason is that some beach cafés are too isolated to expect many guests on cold winter days. Nonetheless, there are some beach cafés that remain open all year round.
